  • Ochrolechia: Notes on O
    Opuscula Philolichenum, 11: 120-134. 2012. *pdf effectively published online 10July2012 via (http://sweetgum.nybg.org/philolichenum/) On the perplexing variability of reproductive modes in the genus Ochrolechia: Notes on O. africana and O. arborea in eastern North America 1 2 IRWIN M. BRODO & JAMES C. LENDEMER ABSTRACT. – Notes on the discovery of several rare, reproductively atypical populations of Ochrolechia africana and O. arborea in eastern North America are presented. Sorediate fertile populations of the typically esorediate and fertile species O. africana were found in the Coastal Plain of southeastern North America. Conversely fertile sorediate populations of O. arborea, a species that is typically sterile and sorediate, were found in Maine and Pennsylvania, U.S.A. The unusual populations are described in detail and their geographic distributions mapped within the context of the reproductively typical populations of each species. A discussion of the labile nature of reproductive modes in Ochrolechia species is presented. The positive hypochlorite reaction in the amphithecial medulla and presence of 4,5-di-O-methylhiascic acid in the apothecia, together with the presence of lichexanthone in all tissues, point to a close relationship of O. arborea with O. mexicana. KEYWORDS. – Ochrolechia mexicana, sterile crusts, hiascic acids. INTRODUCTION Many sorediate crustose lichens that are typically found in their sterile state (i.e., without apothecia or perithecia) are occasionally encountered with fruiting bodies (Lendemer & Knudsen 2010; Tønsberg 1992). This phenomenon can be quite rare, however, and a non-trivial proportion of sterile asexually reproducing lichens have never been found in a fertile state (Fryday & Coppins 1997; Lendemer 2011).
